Earlier this summer, CAIR launched a massive get-out-the-vote operation targeting 3 million Muslim voters. They are camping out at mosques in crucial swing states after Friday prayers to register voters and drive them to the polls. Now, all of this is completely legal. I'm not claiming anything nefarious. But my question is this: Christian pastors, what are YOU doing about it? There are 32 million Christians who go to church every single Sunday and don't vote. CAIR is hunting for 3 million, and we have 32 million sitting in our own pews staying home! Pastors, stop hiding behind the Johnson Amendment. The law has never stopped you from putting a registration table in the lobby or preaching on biblical principles. If you preach that the culture is collapsing 52 Sundays a year, but you never once tell your congregation to get out of the pew and go vote, you're not a shepherd. You're a weatherman. Put a table in the lobby this Sunday. One volunteer, one clipboard, one laptop. Load up the church van and drive people to the polls. Stop complaining and start showing up.

Notes are intended to help lawmakers and the public know the true impact of bills, especially the fiscal impact, BEFORE the legislation is voted on. State Representative Patrick Windhorst calls out the shady tactics often used by Democrats to rule notes on legislation "inapplicable" and avoid accountability. #twill

🚨 BREAKING: Speaker Johnson NAILS IT, saying the m*rder of young girl Sheridan Gorman in Chicago by an illegal alien was BY DEMOCRAT DESIGN "The irony of all this is that the system did NOT fail Sheridan. That worked EXACTLY as the Democrats intended." "You had Democrats in charge of the White House and in charge in the city of Chicago. Open borders policies, sanctuary cities policies, they coddled the criminal illegal alien." "They empowered, they allowed this to happen and that's why we're so angry about it!" "He was in the custody of law enforcement TWICE and there were two chances to stop Sheridan's killer." "But Democrats open borders guaranteed the release and their soft on crime sanctuary policies ensured his impunity and that's why this happened." "How many more times does this story have to be repeated?! Everybody needs to be asking that question!" "Unfortunately the Democrats agenda is going to continue to come at the expense of American citizens, innocent American people, as long as the Democrats insist on shielding dangerous criminals from our laws." @SpeakerJohnson

If a lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth gets its shoes on, then by the time JB Pritzker got to the podium Tuesday morning, the lie had already lapped him twice. Here’s what flight records and court records actually showed: ksdk.com/article/news/local/…

Don’t let JB Pritzker and the Democrats fool you. They want to raise taxes despite what they try to call it.

Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges.

After 843 days in captivity, Ran Gvili’s body was returned home today. Ran was the first to go out and defend on October 7, and the last to return. “All of Israel are responsible for one another (Kol Yisrael arevim zeh la’zeh)” is not a slogan. It is a way of life. One that every Israeli is raised with from the day they are born. We care for one another, protect one another, and stand for one another, even when the cost is unbearably high. This mutual responsibility is the foundation of our people. May his memory be a blessing.

"I appreciate that Pete Buttigieg pretends to be offended by what I said. I think Pete should be offended by the fact that under his leadership of the DOT, the government took $8B to build 7 EV charging stations, at a time when Americans are paying 45% more for gas." - @JDVance 🔥

Welcome to Illinois! The land of elected officials who overtly work to protect criminals. Take this recent bill filed by Rep. Slaughter for instance. He wants to ban police from pulling people over for most routine traffic violations and make any evidence obtained during such stops in admissible in court.

This is bizarre. Reporters ask Members of Congress Qs EVERY DAY at the Capitol. I answer reporter Qs every day at the Capitol. What the hell does he mean, “you’re on federal property; you can’t do this this here?” That’s just false. What’s he hiding??
🚨Rep. Colin Allred threatened to call the Capitol Police on a citizen journalist for asking questions about his support for Hamas, drag shows for children, and Biden’s open border. He thinks he can seriously mount a challenge against Ted Cruz when he threatens to call the police on someone for asking him to defend his positions?

I’ve taken thousands of votes during my time in Congress. No roll call has been as clarifying as the one for Jim Jordan as Speaker. Why isn’t his election easy here? Because his leadership represents a credible threat to the unchecked growth of our bloated federal government.

Ever heard the story about the little boy who told his Mom that he wanted to grow up and be a Firefighter? She smiled at him and said "Sorry Son, but you can't do both." Happy Mothers Day from the AFFI Board and Staff!

According to new FBI data, there was a 23-year high of over 20,000 murders in 2020. This shouldn't surprise anyone. When you defund and villainize the police for nearly a year, criminals are emboldened and our cities are less safe. It’s time to restore law and order.
